The most beautiful building in my town is the clastle. it is in Jumilla's hill.
The first fortifications have existed in the hill from the Bronze Age. later, the Romans constructed the first tower of surveillance around 190 bc.
In 1461, the Marquis of Villena built the fortress of the castle as it is today, with three floors, the basement and the terrace.
The tower of Homage was built in the Gothic style with five floors. It doesn't have windows on the East side. The door was situated on the second floor.
Inside the castle, the dungeon was a basement used as a prison. There was food and water reserves and a cistern which collected the rain water. The light came in through a little window which is located at the Courtyard of Arms.
The Roo of the Major was the noble room of the castle. It had the chimney of the castle and that was the best illuminated room in it with big windows to the Norht, South and West.
At the top, there is the Terrace of Arms. It as a rounded floor surrounded by battlements, except on the East side which as higher than the rest.
On the terrace, there as a piece of equipment used to collect the rainwater to store it in the cisterns of the dungeon.
When you're in the castle, the view of the town is fantastic, and you can see al the mountains which are around the town.
